For Off-road use center-mounted carb only?

Dunno, but it works for this guy:

main reason being the angles that most offroad vehicles operate at.....if you are running across an incline duals are more likely to flood out due to being outboard of the center of the vehicle...the further outward from center you go the more movement(rotaional-ish) the carbs will experience...this can cause fuel sloshing problems...

A number of reasons; they are out near the tires exposed to flying debris; syncronizing dual carbs adds complexity; rough terrain can cause fuel sloshing out the vents dumping excess fuel into the engine.

But the more you get into off-roading in a play buggy, sand rail, baha, or Manx, you'll come to realize that this kind of information is very generic, is very dated, and most of it applies to flat out racing.

Your particular machine, driving style, and the terrain you intend to drive on will dictate what is better suited for you. Temperature is very important as to what will work better.

For example; I practically gave away a brand-new CB 40IDF MX center mount kit after running it less than 6 hours. Despite the better manifold they come with, it couldn't tolerate running much below 60F and plus it didn't produce the torque down low that I wanted. For a kid down in San Diego, running flat out with his weekend buddies, this would have been just the ticket. I'm much happier with a single stock Solex for the rugged areas I go into.

A pair of Kadron's much be well suited to a Baha or Manx that only see's the occasional back trail.
